Default So when do we get GURPS Audibooks?

And who should read them?

They're only canon if read in the true voice of Kromm.

Though we can hire voice actors for characters in the vignettes, like Neville Hawthorne and Tubbs. (No first name required -- or does he have one somewhere? There's a GURPS trivia question for you.)

It will be especially poetic when he reads the weapon tables.

While Kromm is the obvious choice, I don't think we should completely discount the possibility of bringing in outside talent.

Wonder if BRIAN BLESSED would be available? You wouldn't even have to get him in a studio to record it. Just anywhere in the general area would do.

How much could I read aloud and upload to SoundCloud without getting into any legal issues? I'd love to do a little just for the sake of it.

I guess I could start with GURPS Lite.

Audiobooks? Not ambitious enough. The whole Basic Set, as an interpretive dance video!

Douglas Cole needs to do those.

At least the parts for bows and crossbows.
